Measurements of the radiation hardness of selected scintillating and light guide fiber materials
read the original abstract
Radiation hardness studies of KURARAY SCSF-78M scintillating fibers and clear fibers from KURARAY and pol.hi.tech. performed under different dose rate conditions in proton and electron beams are summarized. For high dose rates in-situ measurements of the fiber light output were done. During several months after irradiation all fibers were measured concerning light emission and transparency. Fibers irradiated at high rates to about 1 Mrad are clearly damaged but recover within a few hours up to several weeks. Using smaller rates up to the same integral dose a decrease of the light output of scintillating fibers of up to 30% can not be excluded. Clear fibers seem to be uneffected up to 400 krad. No significant influence of fiber coverage and atmosphere during irradiation was found.
